Abstract (en)

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for cyclic prefix (CP) extension and listen before talk (LBT) type for uplink transmissions. Specifically, certain embodiments may provide for applying a CP and/or a LBT when DCI schedules two discontinuous uplink transmissions. For example, certain embodiments may provide for determining the LBT type and CP extension for jointly scheduled aperiodic sounding reference signal (A-SRS) and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH)/physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmissions. When the two or more transmissions are non-consecutive, the first one of the transmissions may apply the CP extension and the LBT type indicated by the scheduling downlink control information (DCI). For the second transmission, the CP extension may depend on the CP extension indicated in the DCI.
